    • It was an event.NBQ00
    • This is actually the case in most places with cameras and recordings.monospaced
    • We are always granting permission to use our recorded likeness in all media, in perpetuity.
      This is fine.
      palimpsest
    • We have large events where I work all the time and while we have similar signs we make it clear you can opt out if you wantsausages
    • Every event I throw (that's what I do for a living) has the same disclaimer. Every event you attend has the same. This isn't unique to Apple ffs.monospaced
    • It's their footage which everyone attending willingly accepted to be a part of. Of course it's theirs in perpetuity. It ain't yours. :)monospaced
    • Fuck thatdrgs
    • Are you seriously not aware of this? Have you never been to a concert or any filmed event?monospaced
    • how dare they! recording me on their property!pango
    • how dare they advise me of this, giving me the opportunity to not be recorded without my consent! how awful, fuck that! I prefer no advisory.monospaced
    • the problem with this sign that it doesn't discloses how that data is being used: security, advertising, stalkingsted
    • @monospaced you pay to attend at the event, and your ticket is a contract.
      but you're forced to accept this to BUY a product...
      sted
    • Only if they're filming an event live. It's not like this all the time. Also, they don't use their event footage for marketing, so really not an issue.monospaced
    • I can understand the security/surveillanc... part, but to use a recording of me afterwards in any media in perpetuity? Why can't they live without it exactly?drgs
    • it‘s legal blabla. just in case something awesome happens and marketing goes viral with it. would totally violate the law here in switzerland.uan
    • stop buying apple
      problem solved

    • @drgs, this is standard language used at all events. It's not really an Apple thing, it's an industry thing.monospaced
    • It's just legal stuff so you don't go in demanding to own the footage that contains you, or forcing them to delete their own work.monospaced
    • I figure that's understood, but the language and 'contract' is entirely one-sided and ridiculous.Nairn
    • i eat a lot of beans and fart a lot before i enter that recording studio.neverscared
    • So much legal jargon seems unnecessarily one-sided and ridiculous. Read ANY terms for any service. Totally bonkers sounding.monospaced
    • so thoughtfulutopian
    • The only solution, as I see it, is to strap a dildo onto your head when you go to these things.Nairn
    • everyone else does it, no one cares. apple does it, headlines and outrage.inteliboy
    • Facebook and Instagram does that.
      Everyday.
